The way people discover products has changed. Users are now snowflakes, each one is different and each experience has to be personalized to them in order to get the conversions we’re used to seeing.
In 2019, the businesses looking at marketing as a double-helix instead of a funnel are increasing margins and seeing conversions.
The marketing doublehelix is made up of a spiral of awareness and a spiral of purchase conversions that connect through evaluation. The evaluation is where the customer decides if they want to cross over from the journey into the purchase.
One of the best ways to increase margins is to amplify value through: Influencers: Use influencers to mark up prices Story: Spin your product into a story that makes it more valuable than the competition
Personalization: Personalize landing page, emails, and products
- 113% increase in views and 113% in new accounts
